Abstract

Osamu Dazai

Using the most cutting-edge imaging technology, new approaches to personal identification are being investigated. This study may assist in the identification of victims in the event of future major disasters. Advanced imaging for positive identification in forensic pathology has already been the subject of research by means of radiographic image recognition and other identification or authentication methods. For these approaches, data from biological fingerprints are gathered using digital radiography and other cutting-edge imaging methods. Even though it is still in its infancy, picture matching and identification in sophisticated digital images has shown promise for reducing medical errors and identifying specific patients. In the fields of forensic anthropology, forensic odontology, and forensic pathology, these techniques might be useful for making a positive identification.
